  • Medieval Biography Between the Individual and the Collective
    Janez Mlinar / Medieval Biography Between the individual and the ColleCtive Janez Mlinar Medieval Biography between the Individual and the Collective In a brief overview of medieval historiography penned by Herbert Grundmann his- torical writings seeking to present individuals are divided into two literary genres. Us- ing a broad semantic term, Grundmann named the first group of texts vita, indicating only with an addition in the title that he had two types of texts in mind. Although he did not draw a clear line between the two, Grundmann placed legends intended for li- turgical use side by side with “profane” biographies (Grundmann, 1987, 29). A similar distinction can be observed with Vollmann, who distinguished between hagiographi- cal and non-hagiographical vitae (Vollmann, 19992, 1751–1752). Grundmann’s and Vollman’s loose divisions point to terminological fluidity, which stems from the medi- eval denomination of biographical texts. Vita, passio, legenda, historiae, translationes, miracula are merely a few terms signifying texts that are similar in terms of content. Historiography and literary history have sought to classify this vast body of texts ac- cording to type and systematize it, although this can be achieved merely to a certain extent. They thus draw upon literary-historical categories or designations that did not become fixed in modern languages until the 18th century (Berschin, 1986, 21–22).1 In terms of content, medieval biographical texts are very diverse. When narrat- ing a story, their authors use different elements of style and literary approaches. It is often impossible to draw a clear and distinct line between different literary genres.

Što li je to što nas tako snažno privlači priči o dinastiji čija je prisutnost na pozornici velikih trajala jedva nešto više od stoljeća? Možda upravo činjenica da se u tom relativno kratkom vremenskom periodu njihov utjecaj na društvena i politička zbivanja osjećao ne samo u njihovoj neposrednoj okolini – na području današnje Slovenije i Hrvatske gdje se nalazila velika većina njihovih posjeda – već i u znatno širem regionalnom prostoru koji je sezao od jugoistočnih predjela Svetog Rimskog carstva, preko ugarsko-hrvatskog kraljevstva sve do srednjojekovne Srbije i Bosne. Zaista, za Celjske grofove, norveškog kralja-pustolova Haralda Hadradu ili francuskog viteza Engerarda de Coucya, moglo bi se prije reći da njihova povijest pripada domeni fikcije i pustolovnih romana nego stvarnim povijesnim događajima.

Cinkarni so se nato do konca 19. stoletja pridružila še nekatera nova podjetja, med katerimi je bila za Celje vse- kakor najpomembnejša tovarna emajlirane posode, ki jo je leta 1894 ustanovil Adolf We- sten. Z ustanovitvijo teh dveh in še nekaterih drugih podjetij je Celje že pred prvo svetovno vojno stopilo na pot industrijskega razvoja. Pravi razcvet pa je celjska industrija doživljala v obdobju med obema vojnama, saj je bilo takrat na območju Celja že okoli štirideset podje- tij. Tako še danes v Celju in njegovi bližnji okolici skoraj ni pomembnejšega industrijskega podjetja, katerega začetki bi ne segali v čas pred drugo ali celo prvo svetovno vojno. Po dru- gi svetovni vojni je revolucionarna oblast vsa ta podjetja podržavila in iz njih ustanovila državna podjetja, ki so dobila tudi povsem druga imena, kot so jih imela nekoč. Danes nam o nekdanjih celjskih industrijskih podjetjih pričajo samo še ohranjeni arhivski dokumenti, med katere sodijo tudi njihovi logotipi, ki jih hrani Zgodovinski arhiv Celje. Ker ti logotipi predstavljajo pomembne pričevalce o zgodovini celjske industrije, poleg tega pa imajo tudi določeno umetniško vrednost, smo se v našem arhivu odločili, da njihove reprodukcije izdamo v posebni publikaciji, ki je sedaj pred nami.

  • Heraldry in Macedonia with Special Regard to the People's/Socialist
    genealogy Article Heraldry in Macedonia with Special Regard to the People’s/Socialist Republic of Macedonia until 1991 Jovan Jonovski Macedonian Heraldic Society, 1000 Skopje, North Macedonia; [email protected] or [email protected]; Tel.: +389-70-252-989 Abstract: Every European region and country has some specific heraldry. In this paper, we will consider heraldry in the People’s/Socialist Republic of Macedonia, understood by the multitude of coats of arms, and armorial knowledge and art. Due to historical, as well as geographical factors, there is only a small number of coats of arms and a developing knowledge of art, which make this paper’s aim feasible. This paper covers the earliest preserved heraldic motifs and coats of arms found in Macedonia, as well as the attributed arms in European culture and armorials of Macedonia, the кing of Macedonia, and Alexander the Great of Macedonia. It also covers the land arms of Macedonia from the so-called Illyrian Heraldry, as well as the state and municipal heraldry of P/SR Macedonia. The paper covers the development of heraldry as both a discipline and science, and the development of heraldic thought in SR Macedonia until its independence in 1991. Keywords: heraldry of Macedonia; coats of arms of Macedonia; socialist heraldry; Macedonian municipal heraldry 1. Introduction Macedonia, as a region, is situated on the south of Balkan Peninsula in Southeast Citation: Jonovski, Jovan. 2021. Europe. The traditional boundaries of the geographical region of Macedonia are the lower Heraldry in Macedonia with Special Néstos (Mesta in Bulgaria) River and the Rhodope Mountains to the east; the Skopska Crna Regard to the People’s/Socialist Gora and Shar mountains, bordering Southern Serbia, in the north; the Korab range and Republic of Macedonia until 1991.

  • Introduction
    Introduction mong the phenomena of late mediaeval society towns as highly Aorganized settlement agglomerations held a very special position. Their appearance determined, to a greater extent than churches or castles, the level of culture or civilization reached by a certain province in its development, and, at the same time, they reflected the social controversies of their age. In the face of this it is only natural that experts from various fields take part in the study of towns, i.e. geographers and town planners, art historians and so­ ciologists, each of them from his (or her) specific point of view. All of these professions have, each in its field, rendered far-reach­ ing discoveries, yet their observations have, to a large extent, re­ mained partial. A balanced structural analysis, which would, through the consideration of all historical data, facilitate a more complex evaluation of town textures and the basic characteristics of the ir development, is therefore stili one of the most provocative challenges, particularly for those who do not only analyse historic towns, but also determine their future development. The establishment and development of large towns that sooner or later grew into regional or even state capitals was always deter­ mined by large rivers. This held true of ancient Egypt and Meso­ potamia as well as of large European towns. Aachen as the capital of Charlemagne was located by the Rhine, and four of the present­ day state capitals developed along the Danube: Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade, besides the ancient imperial independent town of Regensburg. On Slovene land there were no rivers that could measure up to the Danube and other great European rivers, therefore other factors played a more decisive role in the establishment of towns, although they similarly came into existence in the valleys and always adja­ cent to rivers.
